The Day of the Lord, will the church be raptured?

[Marilyn C]

Hi Salty,

 

Just following on our little conversation as regards - promises & heirs. Can you share with me please how you see -

 

1. Promises to Israel & their inheritance as heirs,

 

2. Promises to the Body of Christ & their inheritance as heirs.

 

Just a brief summary will do, thank you Salty.

Joined to Christ in spirit and not by flesh.

For The Lord said you in me and I in you in spiritual marriage, within the context of the Holy Ghost that was to be given on Pentecost.

Romans 8:12-17

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

Therefore in the new covenant age there is no flesh heirs with Christ, for all must come by the way of the Spirit of Christ otherwise they have no salvation.
